Adean, I believe you will notice that every hardsuit posted here has the pilots head showing. You should also notice that your sniper is a lousy shot, as is your archer.

Is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me?

Well, I suppose it's my turn. I'll try to put something together once my LEGO stash is moved out of storage...

Hmmm, well, I understand how cool it is to have the head showing, but I believe that my hardsuit will have at least a little more cover for my guy's cranium thank you very much.

As for my dudes being lousy shots, at least I pwn you at close combat. D8<

So here's the new hardsuit. So far I only have one relatively bad weapon for it. I'll keep you posted when I build new ones.

I started building one today. It's based of this guys mechs/suits(the gorum ones). And yes I did use those handy build pictures, but mine is a bit different

I never really liked hardsuits.. or gundam mechs...
I think those stats only apply to non-Mexicans.

except with the bodies turned around so the stud is on his back, then you can attach him do a hardsuit a different way. and their heads fold down, and arms aren't difficult.

Sorry to re-awaken this topic but I have succsesfully taken and uploaded pictures of my alien hardsuit.
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=332335
The arms move up and down (and kind of side to side)
The legs can almost walk
the silver disk on the back is a super shield generator
The right arm has two "toxic" missiles
the left has a repeater plasma rifle (prone to overheat and explode)
and the top right "shoulder" has a laser

P.S. sorry for the blurry one
